ABSTRACT:

Linear IgA bullous dermatosis is a rare subepidermal bullous disease that can occur idiopathically or to be drug-induced. The disease affects both the skin and mucous membranes in children and adults. Drug-induced linear Ig A bullous dermatosis occurs more often in elderly patients who suffer from various chronic and systemic diseases. Among the most frequently reported medications causing the disease are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, anticoagulants, statins, ACE-inhibitors. In this report, we present a case of etoricoxib-induced linear Ig A bullous dermatosis in a woman with no known comorbidities at the time of hospitalization.

 

KEYWORDS:
